Well Control School has released a newly developed online training program. Called the Stuck Pipe Prevention Training Program, the course was developed to target rig personnel - derrick men, drillers, toolpushers and company representatives - as an aid in developing, implementing and utilizing a stuck pipe program. The online program offers easy and cost-effective training that is self-paced, with access anytime, anywhere. Ventyx released its 2008 Oil and Gas Map Series for the US. These maps display detailed geographic information for three key oil, oil shale, natural gas and coalbed methane production areas in the US: the Rocky Mountains, Southwest/Gulf Coast and Mid-Continent regions. The three maps were rendered by Bolder Geographics on behalf of Ventyx. They are in full color and measure 36 × 55 in. Each of the three maps displays key market intelligence vital for making informed decisions regarding oil and gas production.
